Sheree – Director, Senior Manager, Senior MYOB Consultant

Education: Bachelor of Business – RMIT, Certificate IV in Bookkeeping.

What do you love about bookkeeping?

Balancing the books! It gives the same satisfaction as placing that last piece in a jigsaw puzzle, and knowing it’s helping someone - that
it is a useful outcome.

How did you get to work at SWAG?

SWAG originated as Essential Business Support, a business I created as a work-life balance solution when my children were very young. I still
love the flexibility it gives me in each working day.

Barry – Senior Quickbooks Consultant

Education: Bachelor of Business (Accountancy)

What do you love about bookkeeping?

I enjoy working with numbers, and providing useful information to business owners about the financial performance and health of their business.

How did you get to work at SWAG?

Sheree was looking for someone to help her expand her business, and placed an advertisement to which I responded. We met for coffee, and formed
a business relationship, which now dates back to 2008.

Tell us what you like to do in your spare time.

I enjoy the outdoors, with a particular interest in motorcycling and horse riding. I also enjoy music.

Tell us what you like to do in your spare time.

I love spending time with family and friends, going to the pictures and catching up.

Bernadine Oosthuize – Bookkeeper (Diploma of Accounting)

What do you love about bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping is black or white, it's either right or it's not which makes it really easy to measure success. I love the challenge of sorting
a mess of meaningless figures into useable reports that can provide real insight to business owners to help them understand how their businesses
are performing and clearly see whether they are on track to meeting their business and personal wealth goals.

How did you get to work at SWAG?

I was looking for a way to earn some 'fun money' while using my knowledge to help others. I had considered starting up a bookkeeping business
of my own but felt it might have been too big of a commitment to fit around our already full lives so a quick Google search led me to the
SWAG Bookkeeping website, and the rest is history.

Tell us what you like to do in your spare time.

My spare time is filled with ferrying kids around to various activities, catching up with friends and working our macadamia orchard. I love
a good movie, am always surrounded by music and love to bake (and eat)!

We are confident that our books and returns are up to date, delivered on time, and meeting our compliance obligations leaving me time to focus on other important business matters.

– Dick De La Rue, Beveridge Scoria

My accounts were in a mess before we engaged Sheree. Now we are totally organised! Sheree is very efficient and easy to work with. Thanks Sheree!

– Frank Mash, FISA Pty Ltd

The role of bookkeeping has grown to reflect the changing needs of our business, and Swag Bookkeeping is now an integral part of our operations.

– James A Michell, Sentdale Wool

It certainly takes the pressure off me and I feel I can put a lot of trust in to Sheree and what she does for me and my business. What takes her a few
hours would take me days.

– Johanna Clark, Naturopath

We would have no hesitation in recommending Swag Bookkeeping for their friendly manner and professional service.

– John Hall & David Patmore, Ultratune Epping

Swag Bookkeeping have worked alongside Blick for a number of years. Professional, reliable and notably have saved us money and by bringing effective financial
process to our business.

– Mark Schiffer, Blick Creative
